Hi! My name is Gracie!

I am a recent graduate from Solon High School and will be starting the Kirkwood Veterinary Technician program

in the summer of 2027! Animals have always been a big part of who I am and who I plan to be in my future!

I hope to become a wildlife rehabilitator and vet tech soon!

I have volunteered at the Iowa City Animal Shelter for two years and am a current volunteer at the Iowa Farm Sanctuary.

I have owned my own pet sitting business for nearly two years now, and have also worked in another boarding setting for over two years. I own another business as well called Be Their Voice, where I advocate for farmed animals with

handmade products, as I am a part of the nationwide Leaders for Ethics, Animals, and the Planets Youth Advisory Council and hope to open my own animal sanctuary some day! I am so excited to meet you and your pup(s),

and I am glad you chose to stay with us at Pooch Palace!
